Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins has announced a new initiative called One Farmer, One File, which aims to streamline and modernize records across Farm Service Agency, Natural Resources Conservation Service, and Risk Management Agency systems. “These new modern systems will not replace the current systems that are already in place. These FSA offices will stay open. You will always have someone to sit down with to help with paper applications and traditional acreage reporting,” said Rollins before the gathered crowd of one thousand plus in attendance for the general session. Rollins emphasized that the One Farmer, One File initiative will provide another filing option for farmers, “What we are doing in addition to that is adding a modern digital pathway for those who want it.” The One Farmer, One File network is not expected to be finalized until 2028.
